Do you guys have any old catalogues? Conceivably, some scans of those - and photos of list member's wheels - could be used for the basis of a Classic Rendezvous Web page.
What I find fascinating about this, is that I don't recall seeing these rims used in the "aftermarket" in the Washington, DC area - even though local resident Mel Pinto was a big importer of French items. Yet, Steven and Kevin used them in New Jersey and Oregon.
But I suppose that's one of the things that makes the whole Classic Lighweight thing so interesting. Cheers, Fred Rednor - Arlington, Virginia (USA)
